Core Tip

Core Tip: This study analyzed the long-term impact of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted colonoscopy in a diverse at-risk patient population undergoing diagnostic colonoscopy for positive colorectal cancer (CRC) screening tests or symptoms. It was found that in patients with an increased pre-test probability of having an abnormal colonoscopy, the current generation of AI did not yield enhanced screening metrics over high-quality colonoscopy. Future studies that analyze different AI systems across various patient populations are needed to determine the most effective role of AI in optimizing CRC screening in clinical practice.
